Caching

The feethat displays all portlets is cached after being viewed. If you deploy a portlet after viewing the portlets on the toolbar, the newly deployed portlet will not be visible until the cache expires, which is one hour, or you look up the portlet in Manage Portlets and then go back to the site toolbar.
